Digital-Inn - View Single Post - Gap and CUE Sheet 101: A simple tutorial for Dummies like me ;)

13-02-2004

When I combine MestreLion tutorial and my own experience I reach the following conclusion:

To make an exact copy of an audio CD you just put (or keep) EAC in beginners mode, rip the CD in multiple wave files and create the (default) CUE Sheet.
Now you can simply write your copy by loading this CUE Sheet in EAC's CD Layout Editor.
Just what you expect from a program called "Exact Audio Copy".

If you activate the advanced features (switch off beginners mode) you should create the CUE Sheet choosing "Multiple Files With Gaps (Noncompliant)".
This will create the same CUE Sheet as in beginners mode.
If you need a CUE Sheet compatible with other burn software use the (second best) option "Multiple Files With Corrected Gaps" .
